I went through the same problem as you did. I bought different books and it doesnt help me. I learned how to use the tools but I didn't learn how to use it really with it. And books make everything freaking BORING!!! I kept trying and things always went wrong and I always wanted to quit seeing how much better ppl are better than myself and they still ARE! lol
But ever sicne I found this site, my learning maya has been accelerating pretty quickly
I just toggle around with what i see in there, and if i don't understand what its purpose, i ask questions. Just do the tutorials, I've gone through the hassle.

Also, I've learned your characters don't have to look perfect... just perfect enough for the artist making them. I love my guy now (Crae McShae) and as soon as I can figure out the best way to put clothes on him(either by Cloth in Maya or by modelling clothes and wrinkles in clothes and creases and such) I'll be ready to move on to my next character and the next. I'm excited.
I want my first short film to do well and get a lot of exposure and win awards and money and all that other mess that comes with a great film and I know it's not going to be quick or easy but I can wait as long as anyone else can. I don't know many 35 year old men out there just learning and getting involved in 3D or Maya and I don't mind being the first if I am. But for me, afterall of this time I've invested and money and patience, failure is not an option. In the immortal words of Tim Allen.. "Never give up.. never surrender!" Oh yeah... and "To infinity and beyond!"... :p
